When Moses left the Jews for 40 days he returned & the Jews were worshiping a cow. Moses told them to correct their mistakes and ask God for forgiveness.
Now that Jesus has left the Christians for 2 millenniums & they have left his teachings (eg pagan celebrations, worshiping others than God, etc) & never had the chance to repent, will more Christians burn in hell?

I am not saying 100% of Christians but many. For example Christmas, marks jesus birthday, even though Jesus was not born in December.

Jesus said he doesn't bring peace, but he brings his sword.

Not all Christians will burn in hell, since most of them were misled by charlatans and liars.
Those who got the direct message and refused adamantly to repent , then they have signed their fate.
In general coming back to your titles question, Moses and Jesus are both messengers of God, Moses tried vainly to save the Jews but they refused to believe in the ONE god, until today you see more "atheists" among the Jews than anyone else.
On the other hand Christians are not totally damned by the creator for many of them believed in the One God and his teachings.

Those who do such things were never really Christians in the first place.
But if you really want a clear comparison between Jesus and Moses, read the Sermon of the Mount, Matthew 5 - 7. Look for all the times Jesus says, "but I say unto you". Here he first quotes the standard Mosaic interpretation of his time, then shows how his teaching goes far and beyond above that, keeping it while being both easier and more on the mark.

Well, you summed it up pretty well. However, there were a few when Moses came back that didn't participate in worshiping of the cow and committing all kids of sin, even so, there will be a few faithful Christians that haven't defiled themselves with the world when Jesus returns.

Moses brought The Torah, a Divine Law Code. Jesus did not.

The major difference between Moses & Jesus was the rules they claimed were Gods rules--Moses said "an eye for an eye was right---Jesus said it wasn't---Moses said stone adulterers to death--Jesus said don't--Moses said"give you enemy no peace"--Jesus said love them--Moses said God belonged to the Jews--Jesus said God is "within" everyone.The fact some "Christians" choose to ignore Christs' teaching---pretending just worshiping him will bestow grace upon them--matters not.Christs' "golden rule" of treating others as you would like to be treated will last forever.

You kids need to read The Bible,Moses disobeyed God twice,when they reached the promised land God took Moses
up on a mountain and showed him the land He can never enter,He is to die now.Moses died,God himself buried Moses in a secret place in Moab.When Jesus was baptized God spoke " This is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased"

YOU.... seemed to have Missed the POINT....!
(John 1:17) For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
AND....
(Luke 21:24) And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, = = until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
Thanks, RR

Don't forget that in the case of Moses, Israel was split and the ones who did not repent were swallowed by the Earth. They were judged by their heart condition.

Christians are not burning in hell. We choose Jesus. Plus He did not leave us alone. We have His Word and His Spirit is within us.
